Wa alaikum al salam Abdallah, great to hear from you :) I honestly don't know where to start, but I do miss the old days and the super geeky conversations the group had. I learned a lot from this group, so I thought in all selfishness I would love to see the old, and new geeks here to share our knowledge :)
We dont need a plan, let's just let things grow organically, but let's see if we can help more people join and become active here Thanks, Ammar On Sun, Jun 13, 2010 at 1:36 PM, Abdallah <[email protected]> wrote: > Assalam Alaikum wr wb All > > Good to hear from you all again.
